2-Decarboxy-2-aminomethyl-19-hydroxy-PG compounds

ABSTRACT

The present invention provides novel 2-decarboxy-2-hydroxymethyl-19,20-didehydro-13,14-dihydro-PG 1  compounds methods for their preparation and pharmacological use for the induction of prostaglandin-like effect.

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The present application is a division of Ser. No. 025,899, filed Apr. 2, 1979, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,228,104.

DESCRIPTION

1. Background of the Invention

The present invention relates to novel prostaglandin analogs. Particularly, these compounds are analogs of the prostaglandins wherein the C-19 position is substituted by hydroxy, i.e., 19-hydroxy-PG compounds. Most particularly, the present invention relates to novel 2-decarboxy-2-aminomethyl-19-hydroxy-PG compounds, a disclosure of the preparation and use of which is incorporated here by reference from U.S. Pat. No. 4,228,104.

2. Prior Art

Prostaglandin analogs exhibiting hydroxylation in the 19-position are known in the art. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,127,612, Sih, J. C., Prostaglandins 13:831 (1977) and U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,657,316, 3,878,046, and 3,922,297. See also the additional references cited in United States Ser. No. 025,899.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention particularly provides:

A compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein D is (1) cis-CH═CH--CH₂ --(CH₂)_(g) --CH₂ --,

(2) cis-CH═CH--CH₂ --(CH₂)_(g) --CF₂ --,

(3) cis-CH₂ --CH═CH--CH₂ --CH₂ --,

(4) trans-(CH₂)₃ --CH═CH--,

(5) --(CH₂)₃ --(CH₂)_(g) --CH₂ --,

(6) --(CH₂)₃ --CH₂ --CF₂ --,

(7) --(CH₂)₃ --O--CH₂ --,

(8) --(CH₂)₂ --O--(CH₂)₂ --,

(9) --CH₂ --O--(CH₂)₃ --,

(10) --(m-ph)--(CH₂)₂ --, or

(11) --(m-ph)--O--CH₂ --,

wherein m-ph is inter-meta-phenylene, and

wherein g is zero, one, two, or three;

wherein Q is α-OH:β-R₅ or α-R₅ :β-OH,

wherein R₅ is hydrogen or methyl,

wherein R₇ and R₈ are hydrogen, alkyl of one to 12 carbon atoms, inclusive, benzyl, or phenyl, being the same or different;

wherein R₂ is hydrogen, hydroxyl, or hydroxymethyl;

wherein R₃ and R₄ are hydrogen, methyl, or fluoro, being the same or different, with the proviso that one of R₃ and R₄ is fluoro only when the other is hydrogen or fluoro;

wherein W is oxo, methylene, α-OH:B-H, or α-H:β-OH; and wherein X is cis- or trans-CH═CH--, --C.tbd.C--, or --CH₂ CH₂ --.

With regard to the divalent the substituents described above (e.g., Q) these divalent radicals are defined as α-R_(I) :β-R_(J), wherein R_(I) represents the substituent of the divalent moiety in the alpha configuration with respect to the ring and R_(j) represents the substituent of the divalent moiety in the beta configuration with respect to the plane of the ring. Accordingly, when Q is defined as α-OH:β-R₅, the hydroxy of the Q moiety is in the alpha configuration, i.e., as in the natural prostaglandin, and the R₅ substituent is in the beta configuration.
